2005 575M HGTC 6 Speed Manual TDF/CUOIO

Don Domenico and I (we've been telephone/email friends for several years) have just had a long-ish heart-to-heart chat. I really, really, REALLY want his 6-speed TdF blu 575M. For which he's had multiple serious telephone inquiries and a high offer well in excess of what I'd have guessed. Dom also has an argento 575F1 that he intended to keep. I urged him to reconsider and to sell the argento F1 and keep this car. It may take him longer to sell the F1 and my pure guess is that he will net maybe as much as $100K less. But for any lover of the Maranello this is the absolute perfect car and it is close to unique, there my be as few as one other in the world. If he sells it car he will look back and regret it for as long as he has an interest in Ferraris. I think I may have persuaded him. ;-)

 

The only way to equate this is like an 8 year old boy seeing BOOBS for the first time...

 

omg, niceeeeeeee

 

This car is king of a Grail for the Maranellos. I think you will regret selling, but good luck, car will not last long on the market.

Yeah, this is a unicorn...selling this and a 550 Barchetta...my dream v12s! What a pair that would be...

 

Despite the fact that this 575M was originally a USA car, the fact that it is NOW registered in Canada means there is a 2.5% duty charged by US Customs to return the car for registration in the USA.

Beautiful car, good luck with the sale.

 

ok, what is GLWS ? I am an idiot right ?

NOT SOLD YET...???

 

Well unless I missed it somewhere, knowing price for a start may help....

 

As he seller stated in his first post, price will not be discussed in this thread.
Please contact him privately.
This is an exceptional and rare car. The price will reflect this.

 

Take a closer look to his post#1

 

DONT SELL IT! What a beauty. GLWS. I hope you get a ton of money because this is the holy grail.

 

Yes, it would have to go through the grey market process, there are a couple of companies that do this depending on where you are.

What a great car, I always dismiss the 575's because if the lack of a clutch pedal and yours is TDF to boot. That is the ultimate GT, I wish I could do it.

 

Well I never understand this. Why the secret. It cost what it costs just state it for heavens sake. All this secret, secret, confidential POA nonsense and so you don't mention a price. Why do I have to pm just to get a price? All the other details about the car on ??

 

I think maybe some people do it to weed out the wanna-bees.

 

IMHO this usually means the car is over priced. If it's a deal the price would have been posted.

 

Well it is a rare 575.........What are peoples thoughts on a fair price for this car?

 

Do you want all sorts of answers to that question?
I think if someone has decided they want to sell then they pick a figure they feel is fair and then see. If it doesn't sell or get the appropriate enquiries within a few weeks then it's overpriced, so you adjust price accordingly. Simple market forces I guess...

 

+1.

 

It's not about respect. It's an open forum and everyone is entitled to their opinion. Your strategy is flawed and creates a negative sentiment by some towards you and your car. When someone reads your ad, many will not pass on your car by word of mouth as a result. After all, isn't it exposure that you really want? Yes yes yes, your car is special, but how many special F-cars are out there? Lots... GLWS
